BeliefOne of the most important characteristics of present day society is the incredible speed with which it changes. Although change is inevitable, modernization in the workplace currently takes place at such a breath taking pace, that people constantly need to revise their skills in order to adapt. Due to a lack of options for employees to advance, more and more people are facing a variety of socio-economic difficulties. Job loss and problems of unemployment h ave increased greatly due to our inability to handle the pace of company downsizing.Whether or not society as a whole evolves in a positive or negative direction, will always remain up to us as individuals. Innovation occurs when there exists an understanding that the only way to encourage a positive change is by modeling it. Learning Curve Career Center was founded with a simple concept; to help shape and enhance lives through teaching and providing marketable job skills.

With the help of sponsors, LCC aims to increase the number of scholarships offered in the hope of enriching the quality of life on a local level by providing career options to those looking to make a change in their lives. Effective collaborations will provide new and innovative opportunities to the unemployed and underemployed. LCC’s strategic partnerships among philanthropists, community service agencies, and organizations work to mobilize families and communities towards economic stability across the nation by bridging the gap between skilled workers and available positions. Partners seek out candidates and groups in need of financial assistance to further their education. These students may not have the necessary support and lack resources to fund their education, but the Limitless Prospects Program provides them with the tools they need to succeed. Recipients: In keeping with the overall mission of LCC, scholarships will be awarded to applicants who demonstrate a need to acquire employable skills, promise, and the motivation to succeed. The number of scholarships awarded each year varies depending on program sponsorship. Eligibility criteria for the available scholarships are found on the Scholarship page. Scholarships are rewarded on a one-time basis and are contingent upon successfully meeting all requirements and expectations. Recipients are expected to meet high expectations. Personal accountability is emphasized. Funding varies by scholarship and pays toward all or part of a student's required tuition.
